Hey there, just want to ask your opinion, if you were a subsale buyer and now currently own the place, but at times, there are mails into your post box, which belongs to the ex-owner, how would you handle those mails? Would you just leave there aside till one day if the ex-owner come asking from you? Or, would you have the goodwill to inform the ex-owner that there are some mails that she/ he can collect from you? What if the ex-owner wants you to send them to her via post - would you do so?

ask the owner his address and post all to them or ask them to collect themself

will keep in storeroom, pass to owner next time he come la.
wont post

Definitely won't post.
if my mood is ok / goodwill / "urusan paduka baginda", give him a SMS to come pick up. once.

i tried to ask from current tenant ( last time ), they said they didn't receive any mails belongs to some other person ooooh ... (every month also got a few letters of course) ... they might threw it i think, so i gave up

Hello,

If the ex-owner migrated to other country and yet he gave you a call to send by courier service. Will you willing to do so if you are the current owner ?

ask his relative or friend to collect la.
not everyone free to do courier service

Let him know few times. After 3 months, throw it away. The house and the mailing address belongs to u after all.

we do not acountable of their mail, they should hv change their address immediately once moved out, they should also check with you once in a while to see if any mail still deliver to your address, way to handle their mail totally up to you!

Ya, I will put aside the mails and wait for their call. If they don't check with me after certain time, then it will go to the rubbish bin.
Currently my house is still under renovation. It seem that his friends are helping him to collect his mails which I left in the mailbox.

I am not in good term with the previous owner after long and hard negotiation with them.

some of the mail i received do state something like:

"sila kembalikan jika salah alamat"

that type i just put it back into post boxes, the mail is already paid for by the sender..

others, i will put aside and wait for call

Some ex-owners really have some stupid fetish with things like this. Once they go they should have enough common sense to change all their mailing address la.

keep within reasonable time, sms owner to let him know........after a while fedup, TOng SaMpah

thanks for all the comments. I think i will just leave it aside till like one year, if she doesn't come and collect, her business. Rethinking on how "hard" she made the property transaction for the past few months, I think I shouldn't be treating her "too good"....

how come u guys get to negotiate with owner. i only deal with agent.

my case was because the seller is also the seller's lawyer

Redirect the mail to the owner new address dont cost a sen..
